I just had a very odd nightmare (but not of the upsetting sort. Just the odd sort) in which I was at a military base, which was being attacked by aliens, zombies, and zombies riding sandworms, which had other sandworms inside. The head of the base was the guy who played Bosco in the Mentalist, and was promptly eaten when one of the sandworms with sandworms inside managed to dig into the outer defenses. One of the sandworms inside got him while he was examining the damage.

And yesterday I had another odd dream in which an acquitance of mine turned out to be a serial killer who cut off his victim's fingers and hid them in random places to annoy people. IE: I found one in my lunch.

I suspect I have issues of some sort

Try having dreams testing alternate timelines and realities. Sometimes some truly weird crap happens ranging from waterslides and lazy rivers being a primary form of transportation, to living among a race other than human. You being one of them as well.

I think one of the most bizarre alternates I have "visited" had to be what I would describe as, what if God did LSD and then created the universe immediately after? Holy Hell! Literally!!! It's so hard to describe, I leave it up to anyone else to interpret what I mean with that one.

But I think one of my favorites had to be what appeared to be an ego-verse. The inner personalities was the only thing visible. It yielded some surprising sights and a good look into myself. Where was he during my childhood? Then again, where was also half the stuff I saw from there? Makes me realize just how cowardly this reality tends to really get. Most of it as different as night and day. Oddly enough, in that universe, God was also all Old Testament, and a complete dick half the time.

Oh, well I have trypophobia...bad trypophobia.
This shit hits me hard every single fucking time I see some kind of organized natural pattern of holes or circles somehow. Or something like that. I can't quite describe it.
I start to itch all over my body, as my brain thinks the pattern is laid in my skin. I try to get rid of it by scratching, but ofc that doesn't work. So I get sick...really sick..and I may almost throw up from it.
Hard to concentrate really.
I hate 4chan.

Whoa whoa whoa

I have that too.  That is exactly what I was referring to with Miasis.  Clusters of holes with little things in them.  It's debilitating and makes me feel sick.

Biggest thing that scares me is probably my family dying.

This probably stems from a dream I once had where my brother got run over by a bus I was on, but I didn't wake up when it happened. I actually felt complete emptiness afterwards, it was horrible. I don't ever want to feel that :(

I fear the ocean due to both bad dreams and bad experiences with large waves. I'm fine with ponds, lakes, and swimming pools, though.

Also, vivisection scares the hell out of me. We went over the Holocaust recently in history class... Why did he show us those pictures?! I couldn't sleep well for days.

I have AvPD so I get scared of some pretty strange stuff. I can only use my kitchen late at night or in the middle of the day (When everyone is normally in the university) for fear that I'll bump into one of the people on my floor in there. I have a similar problem when it comes to doing my laundry. Ultimately my fears could be summarised as fear of embarrassment and I'm hypersensitive about things, resulting in easy embarrassment.

I fear death. I don't know why, but the sheer unknowable void beyond life scares the shit outta me.

I had a leech on my foot once. I screamed at the top of mu lungs, yanked it off, and beat it between two rocks until it was a thin glue.

I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

RAAAAAAGHRBRBRBRB  Thinking about that thing with the holes and knowing it's a real thing and seeing people describe the exact same thing I feel (Itching all over, overwhelming revulsion and nausea, a strange compulsion to stare at and examine the holes despite how they make me sick) is making it flare up on me.  The first time I ever had anything to do with it was when I was really little.  I had a wart on my thumb and somehow the skin of it got torn open and I could see the regular non-wart skin underneath.  A bunch of capillaries had grown through to feed the wart, and there were all these tiny tiny red holes in a cluster where the wart used to be.  I couldn't stop staring at it.  It had this weird hypnotizing effect on me even though it made my skin crawl looking at it.

Later seeing surinam toads giving birth gave me a similar feeling, but more sickening than the wart. 

Then the big one.  On 4chan (Of course) I saw Lotus boob (A Lotus seed pod photoshopped onto a human breast).  It was traumatizing.  I couldn't stop thinking about it for days and it made me sick.  It was horrible. 

The whole thing has embedded itself so far into my psyche now that just the phrase "clusters of holes with things in them" makes me itch.

Yep, this shit sucks. Especially the boob thing, since the thought of having it on your skin worsens.
However, I would advice you to NEVER EVER IN YOUR FUCKING LIFE google trypophobia in google images...you will never be the same. Just thinking of it makes my skin crawl.
They have more shoops of lotus seed pods and such onto images...of girls, men, children..you name it. It will defile your view of every thing in the world till your soul and mind turns into a withered piece of shit, that constantly reminds you of life's inevitable failures....uhm....got carried away there...but please..never google it. NEVER.

An infinity of nothing after death. Seriously, every time I start to think about it my mind blanches.
My exact feelings on the matter.

What's scary about that? It's not like you'll be conscious to experience it...

Exactly. You can't feel pain if you can't feel, and you can't get bored/lonely/anything if you can't experience.
